That means we are due fearing our beloved and loving our feared at some point, which is the exact reason that, to me, fear and love share a close bond.

And..
I'm sincere as long as I speak. No manipulations this time. This is the truth itself

Indeed. Love and fear often go together. But I believe that love means facing our fears.
I'm a bit scared of manipulators since they are not what they seem to be but at the same time I also admire how manipulators can make other people do what they want without the people realizing (often times). I guess manipulators and brutally honest people work using different methods. Manipulators often use the beautiful lies, while the brutally honest use brutal and cruel truth.

"as long as I speak"? Then, when you're not speaking, you're not sincere?

That's a good analogy.
I believe Hope and Love to be brothers. Hope then gives birth to Fear. Fear grows up and proceeds to kill his mother, Hope.
He can't make peace with his Uncle Love, nor he can erase his existence. In the end, if Love proves to be strong enough, he resurrects his late brother and Fear decides to walk away.
Manipulators are sneakier in that sense when compared to honest people. If I had to prefer one, I'd always choose the honesty over manipulation, as it's a universally acknowledged virtue. Even in manga world, it's the anti-heroes or villains that use manipulative skills in an extended manner

When I'm not speaking, my state of sincerity cannot possibly be known, just like the Schrödinger's cat experiment

Good story. I wish you add one more brother there: Faith.

Honesty is indeed a virtue but it doesn't mean people can't manipulate it. Scary, huh?

I see.

I just couldn't find a role for Faith. It's tough for me to do. After all, I have it with me everytime for any person by default. Maybe he's the one that never dies, but only ages whenever Fear comes close to successfully going through his plan.
If Fear kills Love, too, then he'll have to spare the old Faith to share his then lonesome life.
His role for now is the never-speaking, immortal brother. Like an elderly, distant sibling that you never get to know when he's alive.

Everything can be manipulated. But honesty for me is like a sacred thing that shouldn't be ruined by dirty ways of act (=

SUUUURE.

And be happy with what you make.
I don't know if here it was good to be a kid in 90s. I really didn't do much of a thing that a normal kid would do. I read books, watched TV, started to go to school and there we go, 2000s arrived.
That didn't really change anything about my lifesytle, but that's an entirely different issue (=

Re: A very cool thread title about myself

I would then go find Nikola Tesla to be his assistant, if possible

Rugrats and Pokemon were here in 2000s. Not a big fan of Rugrats, but Pokemon was great.

Didn't listen to any piece of those music, though. Too modern for me to enjoy.
Instead, I read a Dostoyevski novel as a kid, and barely got what it was about. It should have normally ruined my reading habit, but instead, it fueled my will to read.
Life is always interesting, sometimes mesmerizing.
